Time Journey Homo Sapiens
70,000 years ago, Homo sapiens began achieving remarkable feats. Within 10,000 years, they spread from Africa across the entire world.
The Journey Began 70,000 Years Ago
One day, approximately 70,000 years ago, Homo sapiens began to accomplish extraordinary feats. At that time, several groups left the African continent.
If a group of hunter-gatherers split every forty years and the splinter group sought new territory a hundred kilometres further east, that was sufficient to cover the distance between East Africa and China within 10,000 years.

More on the subject of recreational hunting: What the research says about this is shown by Hunting fact-checked: the state of research.
The position of IG Wild beim Wild: IG Wild beim Wild rejects recreational hunting. Our model is the canton of Geneva, which has managed without recreational hunting since 1974: without hunting seasons, without hunting dogs, without driven hunts, without high seats, without the animal cruelty and crime that go hand in hand with hunting season elsewhere. What has worked there for over fifty years disproves every position paper by JagdSchweiz. An association that bases its policy on claims it refutes in its own documents is not a professional organisation, but a factory for misinformation.
